（2021·山东莱州·高二期末） Accompanied by her father, using a combination of aid and free climbing and taking advantage of some special equipment and ropes for protection, 10-year-old Selah made it to the top of El Capitan on June 12 after five days of big wall climbing.

Climbing the challenging and adventurous Nose route of El Capitan was a labor of love for Selah in more than one way. Her parents, Mike and Joy Schneiter, fell in love on this 3,000- plus-foot huge rock and she has always wanted to feel the way that her parents felt when they were up there together. Selah showed great interest in rock climbing at an early age. She wore her first rock-climbing equipment shortly after she learned to walk. She first dreamed of climbing El Capitan when she was 6 or 7.

B．$770.

C．$1232.

D．$1540

优点英语

El Capitan is a famous mountain-sized rock in Yosemite National Park. Getting to its top is no easy task. It's taller, as reported, than the tallest building in the world-Dubai’s Buri Khalifa. El Capitan and its difficult Nose route, which runs more than 3,000 feet high up the center of the rock's face, is considered one of the world's hardest big wall climbs and has attracted the best climbers over time. But never before had a youngster accomplished it.

Selah's achievement caught national attention. Outside Magazine called her the youngest documented person to climb the Nose. Ken Yager, president of the Yosemite Climbing Association, said he also couldn't think of anyone younger who has done it.

Selah is humble about her El Capitan accomplishment. \"I'm not necessarily a special kid or anything like that\of discourage me from holding on. But overall, it was just great to keep plugging away.\"

Selah shared this advice for other young climbers dreaming of big walls, \"It doesn't take necessarily a super special person to do something like that. You just have to put your mind to it.” 4．What do we learn about Selah climbing El Capitan? A．She began her climbing on June 5. B．She got inspired by her family history. C．She managed without any external help. D．She was the first female to reach the top. 5．What is the purpose of paragraph 3? A．To state El Capitan's height. B．To prove El Capitan's popularity.

（2021·湖南·模拟预测）When people pause before replying to a question, even for just a few seconds, their an-swers are supposed to be less sincere and believable than if they had replied immediately. And the longer the hesitation lasts, the less sincere the response appears.

Researchers conducted a series of experiments involving more than 7, 500 individuals. Participants either listened to an audio record, viewed a video or read an account of a person responding to a simple question. In each case, the response time varied from immediate to a 10-second delay. Participants then rated the sincerity of the response on a sliding scale. Across all 14 experiments, participants consistently rated delayed responses as less sincere regardless of the question.

The findings have wide connotations. Whenever people are interacting, they are judging each other's sincerity. These results can be applied to a wide range of interactions, going from workplace chats to couples and friends arguing. Further, in job interviews and in court hearings and trials, people are often tasked with judgments of sincerity. Here, too, response speed could play a part. In general, whenever there is a response that requires an answer, such as in a job interview, delayed responses can be thought as less sincere.

It would be unfair for the responder, such as a crime suspect, if the response delay was sorted by mistake into thought control or answer making up when it was in fact caused by a different factor, such as simply being distracted or thoughtful. The experiment also found that definitely instructing participants to ignore delayed response reduced, but did not completely remove, the effect of delayed response on judgment of sincerity or guilt. Nevertheless, on the whole, a fast response seems to be regarded as more sincere, while a response that is delayed for even a couple of seconds may be considered a slow lie.

8．What does the reliability of answers lie on according to the study? A．The response time. B．The answer content. C．The tone of speakers. D．The difficulty of questions.

9．What does the underlined word “connotations” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

优点英语

A．Choices. B．Responsibilities. C．Meanings. D．Possibilities.

10．What effects does the study result have on our life? A．It is a test to judge honesty. B．It can prevent a lot of crimes. C．It improves skills in asking questions. D．It promotes the harmony between people. 11．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．Delayed answers are lies.

B．It is unfair to require all to answer slowly. C．Delayed answers can lead to misjudgment. D．Delayed response should be ignored completely. 四、

（2021·江苏扬州·一模） Magic is a form of entertainment that is based on pretending to do things that are impossible. The magician is a specially trained actor. He tries to make the audience believe that he has the power to do things which are against the laws of nature.

Magic shows are entertaining as long as the audience does not discover how the tricks are done. The magician usually depends on his skill with his hands, on his knowledge of psychology, and, sometimes, on mechanical devices(机械装置). Since magic performance is meant to trick people, the use of psychology is important. The magician must keep people from noticing all the movements of his hands and from thinking about the secret parts of his equipment. He must also lead the audience to draw false conclusions. The magician's success depends on the fact that many things seen by the eye are not the things that matter.

Two basic magic tricks are making objects seem to appear and making objects seem to disappear. A combination of these two tricks makes for some interesting effects. For example, the magician puts a small ball under one of several cups. The ball then seems to jump from one cup to another or to change colour. What actually happens is that the magician, employing quick hand movements or a mechanical device, hides one ball. While doing this he talks to the audience and waves a brightly coloured cloth with one hand. The audience is too busy watching the cloth and listening to the magician's words to notice that his other hand is hiding the ball.

Another favourite trick is to cut or burn something, and then make it appear whole again.

优点英语

What actually happens is that the magician makes the cut or burned object disappear by quickly hiding it while the audience watches something else. Then he “magically” makes it appear whole again by displaying(展示)another object that has not been cut or burned. 12．What is the author's main purpose in writing the text? A．To promote a magic show. C．To explain the art of magic.

B．To teach people to be magicians. D．To praise the talents of magicians.

13．Which of the following is important for a successful magic trick? A．Moving stage equipment. C．Applying high technology.

B．Directing the audience's attention. D．Keeping the performance in secret.

14．What does the author focus on in the last two paragraphs? A．Providing examples. C．Drawing comparisons.

15．What can we infer from the text? A．Mechanical devices are expensive. C．It takes practice to perform magic. 五、

（2021·四川·攀枝花市第十五中学校高二期中）When you think of Chinese food in the U.S., fried rice, or General Tso’s chicken may first come to mind. But a new museum exhibition in New York City is trying to expand visitors’ palates (味蕾). It features stories of famous cooks like Martin Yan and home cooks whose food represents18 different regional cooking styles of China.

“I think it’s unfair to just classify Chinese cooking as one,” says Kian Lam Kho, a co- curator (策展人) of “Sour, Sweet, Bitter, Spicy: Stories of Chinese Food and Identity in America” at the Museum of Chinese in America. \"Even with the same dish or same cuisine, every family has a different variation.\" That’s why the curators say if you want to taste the full range of Chinese cuisine in the U.S, you’ll need to go beyond restaurants and into home kitchens, which can play a central role in many immigrants’ lives.

“The kitchen itself is kind of a comfort when you come to a new country. That’s the one place where you set up as your home base, and you cook things that you remember from your past,” explains co-curator Audra Ang.

One of the home cooks showcased in the exhibition is Ni Biying, 80, of Manhattan. She

B．Most magicians employ assistants. D．Small objects are magicians' favourite. B．Making a summary. D．Explaining a concept.

worked as a live-in babysitter for years before she could finally afford to rent a home with her own kitchen. These days, you can usually find her moving around her one-bedroom apartment as a sweet smell of vinegar and rice wine floats from her stove. For Ni, a small dinner for friends and family means preparing almost a dozen different dishes. She learned some of her techniques from her father, who made most of her family’s meals when she was a child. \"I still make the beef with stir-fried celery my father used to cook,\" she says. And it’s the kind of comfort food that defines Chinese food for Ni.

16．What is the new museum exhibition mainly about? A．Stories of Chinese food and cooks. C．History of Chinese immigration.

B．Exploration of famous restaurants. D．Cuisine of different countries.

17．Why does the kitchen play a key role in many immigrants’ lives? A．It provides a wealthy life. C．It brings a sense of belonging.

B．It helps them to accept new cultures. D．It enables them to forget the past.

18．What can we learn about Ni Biying from paragraph 4? A．She worked in a Chinese restaurant. C．She learned cooking from her father. 19．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．Chinese Restaurant Tells Immigrant Tales B．Home Cooking Brings More to the Table C．Immigrants Seek their Fortune in the U.S. D．Cuisine Gains New Variations 六、

（2021·山东泰安·三模）When you hear the beginning of your favorite song from the radio, suddenly your neck is covered in goose bumps.

It's such a thing that a group of scientists call “skin excitement”—a feeling of cold caused not by a drop in temperature or sudden scare, but by the sense of beauty. “Skin excitement” can come from a song, a painting, a moving movie scene, or even a beloved memory-pretty much anything that causes the giving out of pleasure-soaked dopamine in your brain. But it does not come for all of us.

Your favorite music uncovers a lot about your personality, and so does how you respond to

B．She made most meals as a child. D．She lives with a big family.

优点英语

that music. Studies suppose that as few as 55 percent of people experience “skin excitement” when listening to music. And if you count yourself among this group, the goose bumps on your skin aren't the only giveaway—scientists can read it in your brain, too. In a new study published in the journal Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, Harvard researchers performed brain scans on 10 students who said they reliably got cold when listening to music, and 10 students who didn't. They found that the cold-prone brains may really be excited by stronger emotions.

Cold-prone brains are generally more likely to show stronger emotional intelligence than no-cold brains. Cold-prone minds tend to have unusual active imagination, reflect more deeply on their emotions, and appreciate nature and the beauty of music and art to a stronger degree than no-cold brains.

So, what type of music causes the chills? It seems that the type is not so important; participants in the new study reported getting cold from songs of every kind. And any song connected with a strong emotional memory of the listener can produce the most reliable results. For me, that's the song Sailing to Philadelphia by Mark Knopfler, which I listened to as a kid in the car with my dad, on the way to the summer camp.

20．What can we learn about “skin excitement” in the text? A．It helps to produce doparmine.

B．It is caused by the pain in the skin.

C．It can be experienced by every music listener. D．It is the human body's reaction to something nice.

21．What does the new study by Harvard researchers mainly find? A．The percentage of music lovers in students. B．The solutions to the goose bumps on one's skin. C．The differences between cold-prone and no-cold brains.

D．The relationship between one's music preference and personality. 22．What are people with cold-prone brains like? A．Beautiful and intelligent. C．Imaginative and sensitive.

B．Emotional and dishonest. D．Brave and strong-minded.

23．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Responses to Music Vary among People

B．A Feeling of Cold Is Caused by Horrible Music

C．Your Favorite Music Reveals Your Personality D．Favorite Music May Bring Forth Goose Bumps

（2021·湖北·汉阳一中三模）Every four or five years, vast quantities of warm water build up along the west coast of South America. This phenomenon, El Niño (厄尔尼诺), creates storms that cause devastating floods. The result is costly. In 2017, for instance, El Niño shut down northern Peru’s sugar-cane business.

Modern farmers view El Niño stoically (坚忍地). They use money saved in good years to rebuild in bad ones. But history suggests it need not be like that. In a paper published recently, Ari Caramanica, an archaeologist at University of the Pacific, in Lima, shows how it used to be done. And the answer seems to be, “better”.

Dr Caramanica and her colleagues have been studying the Pampa de Mocan, a coastal desert plain in northern Peru. Pampa de Mocan is not ideal for farming. Its soil contains little organic matter and the annual rainfall in non-Niño years is usually less than two centimetres. Today’s farmers therefore depend on canals to carry water from local rivers to their fields.

It had been assumed that ancient farmers had a similar arrangement — and so they did. But Dr Caramanica also found eight canals that could carry water far beyond the range of modern farms. Since the climate was similar to the present day’s when these canals were dug, and the river no higher, she supposed that they were intended to guide the floodwater arriving during Niño years. Around a quarter of the ancient agricultural infrastructure (基础设施) of this area seems to have been built only for managing Niño-generated floodwater.

Evidence reveals that Pampa de Mocan produced lots of crops in some years. Dr Caramanica’s team also discovered two cisterns (蓄水池) in the area. These, possibly, were used to store floodwater.

These findings suggest that, rather than resisting El Niño, early farmers in Pampa de Mocan were ready to make use of it when it arrived. Precisely how they managed their fields in Niño years remains to be discovered. But modern farmers might do well to learn from them.

24．What do we know about El Niño from the text? A．It can be used in farming. C．It has little influence on business.

B．It is usually caused by floods. D．It is always resisted as a disaster.

25．What made the farms in Pampa de Mocan productive?

优点英语

A．Rich soil. C．Abundant rainfall.

B．Agreeable climate. D．Agricultural constructions.

26．What’s the author’s attitude to the ancient ways of dealing with El Niño? A．Approving.

B．Indifferent.

C．Critical.

D．Negative.

27．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Surviving El Niño C．Farming in Different Times

Today’s farmers therefore depend on canals to carry water from local rivers to their fields. (卡拉 马尼卡博士和她的同事一直在研究秘鲁北部沿海沙漠平原潘帕德莫坎。潘帕德莫坎不是理想的农业用地。土壤有机质含量低，年降雨量在非厄尔尼诺年通常不到两厘米。因此，今天的农民依靠运河从当地的河流把水输送到他们的农田)”以及第四段“Around a quarter of the ancient agricultural infrastructure (基础设施) of this area seems to have been built only for managing Niño-generated floodwater. (这个地区建立了大约四分之一的古代农业基础设施似乎只为了管理Nino-generated洪水)”可知，农业设施使莫坎潘帕的农场生产更多产。故选D。

Caramanica’s team also discovered two cisterns (蓄水池) in the area. These, possibly, were used to store floodwater.(证据表明，莫坎农场在几年内生产了很多作物。卡拉曼尼察博士的团队还在该地区发现了两个蓄水池。这些，可能是用来储存洪水的)”可以看出，潘帕德莫坎的早期农民并没有抵抗厄尔尼诺现象，而是在它到来时准备利用它。修建了诸如运河、蓄水池等农业设施，方法的确是有效地。因此推断作者对于古代处理厄尔尼诺的方法是支持的。A.
